Since nobody is answering, I'll bite despite not really having personal experience with this. The Maemo repos are the same as Debian's as Maemo uses Debian's package manager so maybe this will get you started? http://wiki.debian.org/HowToSetupADebianRepository

Interesting question.
Can I ask why you want to setup your own repo if you can just use the maemo.org repo instead?

Hi sio2interactive.
Why do you want to create your own repo? I mean, maemo.org is actually the best way for you to make people knowing your games, guarantee that your games are stable and can't damage anyone's device, improve your games through Bugzilla bugs and enhancements, and let you know what people think about your games.
I'm sure that very few people will trust a repository created from nothing.

Reprepro suits my needs. I find this covers the basics of configuring it.
These are the contents of extras.install which adds the repository:
[catalogues]
catalogues = extras
[extras]
name = maemo Extras
uri = http://repository.maemo.org/extras/
components = free non-free
And omweather.install for a package:
[install]
catalogues = extras
package = omweather
[extras]
name = Extras
uri = http://repository.maemo.org/extras/
dist = fremantle
components = free non-free

Allright, tks to you Lord Awesome, I got everything up and running talking repository... One last thing remains... when I open one of my .install (either for adding the repository or to install a package) file with the webbrowser on the device it only shows text...
However when I download the package from the Application Manager (since its available on the list) or add the repository manually, I have no problem...
Am I missing something?

Allright, fixed... we didn't do anything wrong... the App. Manager is expecting a file to be sent from web browser.
Simply create a PHP file like this:
<?
$header = "Content-disposition: attachment; filename=" .$_REQUEST[ "file" ];
$readfile = $_REQUEST[ "file" ];
header($header);
header('Content-type: applicaton/octet-stream');
readfile($readfile);
?>
This will force the file that we request to be downloaded, and not simply viewed by the webbrowser.
Save the file like: get_install.php and upload it, then call it within your webbrowser like: youdomain.com/get_install.php?file=mygame.install (of course here mygame.install need to exists...)
And that's it, work for both repositories and applications.
Hope this help,
Cheers,
